Definition of the stability of objects and structures

The ability of the objects and structures to remain stable, or for the objects and structures to return to their original positions

Definition of the center of gravity

The point located at a certain height in the middle of an object

Effect when the center of gravity is low

The more stable an object

Factors affecting the stability of objects and structures

Height and base area

Definition of the strength of objects and structures

Ability of the objects and structures to withstand a force that could damage or change their structural shapes

Factors affecting the strength of objects and structures

Types of materials and the shapes of objects

Definition of arch structure

Curved structure that is used to support loads

Importances of strong and stable structures

Not easily damaged and can save maintenance cost

Characteristics of the dome

The hemispherical shape makes it strong and does not require pillars for support

Characteristics of Cylindrical shape

A structural shape that is strong, durable, and does not damage easily
